Just look at the title. “A Mistake” is there to get your attention. You gotta say something outrageous to the point of being offensive to get people to ‘take’ notice.
David Brooks was the one time ‘conservative’ on those panel shows I do believe. In our culture the way to make money is to get people to give you their undivided attention. Could be a street musician, a doctor or even a stripper. The trick is to find what sells. If times get dull one can always make things up. 24 hour news is a perfect example. Our friends at Fox do Special Report and the rest is regurgitated commentary hour after hour. At least Bill Mahre confines his schtick to one hour a week. Gutfeld needs to stop with the poop jokes-too much time to fill just like these TWO articles.
Do we owe it to them to read both to give our INFORMED opinions? Ohio State is on the tube now. I’ll pass.

Absolutely, but he was installed to be the designated Piñata, he’s not a genuine conservative, his ilk are there to represent a leftist caricature of a conservative is, in order to knock it down. A straw man in the flesh. The “news” has been doing this for decades. It’s a subtle type of mind-fvckery that was pretty effective when they had a monopoly. Republicans were part of the scam, the Rhinos anyhow. Democrats screw things up, Republicans make sure it stays that way. Uniparty.

Conservative in quotes is correct.
He's an actor, playing the role of a conservative, like a gay actor who portrays straight men. Everyone knows it and are surprised decades later when he declares he's out of the closet. They're either surprised that he's still alive or that he didn't come out of the closet years earlier.
O-H
